It’s okay, the 1 percent only pays 41 percent of California’s income taxes. And half the state pays no income tax at all. No one will even notice they’re gone.
Prop. 30, approved by voters in November 2012, raised state income taxes retroactively to Jan. 1, 2012, on singles making more than $250,000 and married couples making $500,000. It raised rates by one, two or three percentage points through 2018, bringing the top rate on incomes above $1 million to 13.3 percent, the highest in the nation.
Bryan Goldberg, who founded the Bleacher Report sports website and sold it to Turner Broadcasting for about $200 million in mid-2012, is moving his primary residence from San Francisco to New York this year. A major reason, he says, is Prop. 30 and the way it was applied retroactively.

Thanks Beave Meister.
It’s absolutely despicable that bottom-feeding freeloaders who don’t pay a penny in taxes can vote to force those who bust their asses going to work everyday should pay more taxes. Those people aren’t Americans. They’re lowlife commie scum.
Well, it is probably not the weather. Even though we all know Global Warming will kill us all......still thinking...
The mystery is why I am still here.
89% of the people voted to over tax the top 11% who are of course the big tax payers in the state. I moved out last July.
Maybe they should build a wall or something
Can’t possibly be the big donkey in the room.
Californya, It truly is the land of nuts and fruits.
Maybe it’s all that radiation flowing in.
What a dimwit
Don’t like the heat in Texas?
Well, with all the Texas-bashing you’ve done over the years.. stay there.
You are welcome here in Texas. Just don’t bring any of your socialist ideas or notions with you.
I love Texas, I used to live there. I "bash" its liberal governor and faux conservatives like you who defend him.
There is NOBODY who pays not a penny in taxes...there are taxes on your drinks, cell phone bill, utility bill, tires, etc...
We should go back to only property owners are allowed to vote because the freeloaders will vote to raise taxes on everyone every time so they can ride the freebie wave at the beach.Freeloaders have no skin in the game!
Faux conservatives like me.
If I search your posting history, will I expect to find any support of Sarah Palin or Ted Cruz?
